Customer Ratings & Reviews

As a connoisseur of superhero films I must say that this is the kind of movie I wish the avengers 2 would have been. It's a lot of fun without feeling too long winded.

I've enjoyed all of the Marvel movies. Captain America Civil War is another good one. Great characters, action, even humor!

Fantastic Movie, Love the Steelbook packaging just wish it included a regular DVD as well

It's an overall great film and I would recommend it to a friend.

Not as good as the first one but still great......

The copy I picked up at the store was completely crushed. The manager offered a 10% discount when the bottom of the case was completely crushed on arrival. He did fortunately gave me 50% off after he saw my huge disappointment. There is no excuse to preorder 4 months out and get a doa product.

Case came damaged and it was missing the digital code. I will definitely be returning it and buying it elsewhere. The pictures show everything that was in the case

Captain America Civil War is one of my favorite MCU films, and it’s a great movie! Unfortunately when I received my package the steel book was damaged, it got torn and bent during shipping. Luckily the Blu-ray Disc didn’t break.

Divided loyalties amongst the Avengers and epic jaw dropping action leads to a great movie.

Captain America: Civil War is a masterful blend of thrilling action, compelling storytelling, and resonant themes. The film not only entertains but also challenges the audience intellectually. It stands as a pinnacle in the MCU, showcasing the superhero genre's potential for depth and nuance. A must-watch for both avid Marvel fans and casual moviegoers alike.

One of the better movies in the MCU by far! There was a lot of great action and kept me on the edge of my seat. the airport battle was one of the most epic fights I've seen in any movie. Definitely recommend this movie to anyone who is a fan of the MCU. I picked up the steelbook and it looks absolutely awesome! The crack separating Captain America's shield and Iron Man's mask on the cover is embossed (or debossed, don't really know the word for it). The steelbook has a matte finish to it which gives it a really nice feel. The steelbook version comes with 3D, Blu-Ray, and digital versions of the movie. If you are a steelbook collector or just a big Captain America fan, the steelbook is definitely the way to go. Great movie, great steelbook, great purchase!

Adding another movie to complete my Marvel collection

It's a solid MCU additon to any 4K collection. Must get for a 4K collector.

The last film of the Captain America trilogy my favorite trilogy so far. Recommended without reservation but suggest buying it with access to digital code as well as the DVD.

Captain America's Civil War is a blast of a Marvel movie, though like many recent Marvel offerings it is dragged down a bit by the Marvel formula. After the events of Captain America: The Winter Soldier the world is hunting Bucky Barnes (the Winter Soldier). With the added problems of the devastation caused during Avengers: Age of Ultron and collateral damaged that occurs in the opening of this film, the world governments come together to demand a new level of oversight over the Avengers. Iron Man wants to acquiesce to these demands due to his part in creating Ultron; Captain America wants to refuse as he feels government organizations are too easily corrupted after learning Hydra had been infiltrating SHIELD for years. Honestly, this movie is really Avengers 2.5 rather than a Captain America sequel. It does do a great job of continuing Steve Rogers' story and tying things together nicely around his friendship with Bucky, but enough of the other characters get their own arcs that it feels like a group movie. There are also solid introductions to both Spider-Man and Black Panther (though the former's inclusion is a bit questionable since Tony Stark drafts him into the growing superhero war). The movie's much hyped airport fight scene between the two "sides" of this conflict is bombastic and awesome. The main drawback is just that the movie does pull a few punches and there are no fatalities like in the original comic. The stakes thus don't feel high enough. The climax of the movie is more personal and emotional which is a nice change from other Marvel movies going over the top with the "world ending" action. The real downside though is the villain. Daniel Bruhl is solid and intriguing as Helmut Zemo, but his "plan" in the movie relies on way too many conveniences and coincidences to make sense. If you can turn your brain off for the movie, you won't really care, but the moment you start to think about how Zemo had to perfectly predict the reactions and motivations of numerous characters it breaks the immersion of the film. Honestly, you just could drop Zemo entirely and the film would have worked well enough without him.

’ve long believed that Captain America has provided some of the very best movies to emerge from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and that trend continues with “Captain America: Civil War.” Based on a series than ran in the comic books a decade or so ago, “Civil War” features Cap and the rest of the Avengers (at least the characters that appear in this movie) being held to account by the governments of the world for the collateral damage they inflict while going about their business of defeating supervillians like Loki and evil organizations like Hydra. A compromise is worked out; the Avengers can stay in business if they agree to end their independence and submit to taking orders from a U.N. organization. Half the team, led by a slightly conscience-stricken Tony Stark, are amenable to the idea. The other half, led by a wary Captain America, want nothing to do with diplomats and politicians. Add in a bad-guy with an agenda of his own, and the result is an action-packed but also character-driven superhero movie that rises above the pack of this genre. While clearly sympathetic to Cap’s point of view (the title is, after all, Captain America: Civil War) the filmmakers (and Robert Downey) do not allow the pro-control Avengers to turn into cardboard sell-outs. They also do an exemplary job of choreographing the action and integrating characters into the storyline, including the Black Panther and a few surprises. Virtually every major character has a good moment or scene or two, which isn’t always the case with these multi-character movies, where it can seem the director is less of a storyteller than a traffic cop. The film’s action set-piece, a show down between the two sides at a German airport where, old friendships aside, no punches are pulled, is extremely well done. Unlike some other directors who seem to set these sequences in darkest nights with rain pouring down, obscuring everything, like a van Gogh painted in a thunderstorm, Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely shoot their epic fight in broad daylight. They pay attention to detail and excel at showing how, even in combat, the action is driven by the individual characters making individual decisions, instead of the typical guys-dressing-up-in-tin-cans-and-knocking-each-other-down fight scenes in comic book movies. The filmmakers also add several plot twists and turns, and at a few key moments upend expectations. This DVD package includes very few features, which is fine with me, I hardly ever watch them. Recommended for: Fans of really good comic book movies.

Almost don't know where to start... I have watched various friends serve in the US armed forces, and come back with varying degrees of PTSD. I am not advocating an anti-war sentiment, but acknowledging that there are consequences to any decision, be it action or inaction. But to see how it has shaped Iron Man into what he has become has been an interesting journey. I am one of those who does not see the Iron Many films as lighthearted, but as a commentary on how many people choose to deal with stressful, life-and-death, or even not so serious decisions. Some navigate this more successfully than others. On the other hand, we have the titular character, Captain America. He has been dealing with, and avoiding, his own issues, having been dealt a much different, but no less serious set of circumstances in his life. Now, watch the very intensely emotional fallout in what could easily be termed the "darkest" Marvel film set in the Avengers framework... It was a ride that had me locked in both excitement and dread the entire time. And watching it again at home (in excellent 3D) had the same effect, despite knowing the outcome. Bravo to Disney/Marvel for pulling this off, and creating a very entertaining piece of action film that somehow manages to address so many societal issues without the heavy-handed attitude of many documentaries. This is an incredibly made film, despite some plot holes, if you really wanted to be picky. It is still a comic book movie, but with a depth that you just wouldn't expect. Now to the product, separate from the film - The steelbook is absolutely gorgeous. It matches the previous Captain America release (Winter Soldier) in the quality of the steelbook packaging, so it makes for a great collector's piece, if that's your bit. The cover art is even terrifically balanced and appropriate to the story. The 3D blu-ray inclusion was almost obligatory, given the recent Marvel releases, but it is appreciated by those of us who still like and believe in home theatre 3D being a potentially amazing experience. The extras were honestly far more than I will ever care to watch, and round out a very impressive product. So, combine a very fun, intense film with a terrific package, features galore, and you get a complete win.

The HDR color improvements are just as critical to the UHD's visual success. There's no remaking or rebranding the movie here, just a simple improvement to color depth and saturation, tonal nuance, and contrast. Colors are deeper as a rule, ranging from costumes to skin tones, from props to deep shadow details that find much more depth without crushing out anything within. The image combines improved saturation, and a slightly darker overall appearance, with more brilliant brights that accentuate explosions, colorful costumes, lipstick, red hair (Natasha, basically), and any and every point of color interest. Whites appear significantly more crisp and intense, including the various location title cards that fill the screen throughout the film or several examples of crisp white attire, such a T-shirt a young Tony Stark is wearing in chapter three. The HDR colors are tastefully applied, enhancing, not recreating, the palette. The UHD exhibits no source or encode anomalies of note; even noise is kept in check. This is certainly not the format's pinnacle but it makes for a solid, well-rounded upgrade over the Blu-ray. Fans should be pleased.

While the spectacle of Civil War has been topped with Infinity War and Endgame, I think Civil War is still my favorite MCU film. It’s not the deepest film in the world, but it took the characters we know and love to emotional depths that we had never seen before. I watched it again recently, and even after multiple MCU films featuring Spider-Man, Tom Holland’s introduction in this film still gives me goosebumps. It’s both heartbreaking and exhilarating seeing Cap and Tony at odds, and the film somehow manages to be a fulfilling sequel to the first two Cap films, while perfectly setting up the rest of Phase 3. Much has been said about the MCU's (and particularly this film's) color palette. The colors are toned down to ground the characters in reality. However, the 4K transfer still looks great; and it's the best way to watch the film.
